Whilst Nigel Farage tries to distance himself from Trump and his Iran war, letโ€™s not forget his support for Trump and his Iran war.

Both the Tories and Reform UK urged Britain to support Trump and Netanyahu's war on Iran. Don't forget that.

I think this Gerard Manley Hopkins poem has some of the best sounds I know in English. When I read him aloud, I really feel it, his interesting rhythms, his sonics. He had a special ear. Try reading him aloud if wanted, it's a cool experience to get Hopkins in your head.

To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead, you relax, and float.

Hitler wanted this painting for himself. At the end of the war, American soldiers found it hidden inside an Austrian salt mine. Vermeer treated this one differently. He never sold it. He kept it his whole life. When he died broke in 1675, his widow secretly gave it to her mother just to keep it away from creditors. This is Vermeerโ€™s The Art of Painting, 1666. Sound on ๐Ÿ”Š

Dear God. You watch this and immediately understand how as much as HRC, Biden, and Kamala tried, none of them really had the skills to make the case against Trump.
He has that Obama elocution.

Not only was Badenoch flaunting her relationship with Vance the day I left, Griffith and Hollinrake were soliciting donations from Elon Musk. Utterly insane. And Cameron is drumming up money for this disgrace of an iteration that bears no resemblance to the party he lead 10 years ago. It is totally unacceptable and they are headed for another rout not recovery. At every electoral opportunity voters say no. Get rid of Badenoch or go down (again).

Charles and Emily Oxley and their seven children, their faces as they were at the time of their mother's death in 1898, a memorial in Ripon Cathedral. The inscription was added to as each died, the last of them Dorothy, who died in 1990 at the age of 100. #MonthOfTheDead day 4
